142 Chapter 141, More Than One
“Mother, don’t bother about this matter,” Li Lei said in a low voice. He looked a little disappointed.
Seeing this, Zhang Kun hurriedly said, “I’ll go and take a look first. Of course, I won’t give the money if I can. If I really can’t, then I’ll give the money. After spending the money, it’s worth it to hear the truth, don’t you think?”
The last sentence was directed at Liu Guihua.
Although Liu Guihua didn’t know what Li Lei was planning to do, she also knew that her son wasn’t a person who spent money recklessly.
When she was in the army, his monthly salary was sent to her family on time. He only kept 30 Yuan of pocket money every month.
Liu Guihua hesitated for a moment before nodding, “Yes, you’re right.”
Just as Zhang Kun was about to stand up and leave, Ji Yuanyuan grabbed his arm and refused to let go, “Uncle Zhang, where are you going? I want to go too!”
Zhang Kun hesitated for a moment. When he saw Ji Yuanyuan’s expectant gaze, he still reached out and carried her.
“I’ll bring Yuanyuan with me. They probably don’t know Yuanyuan, right?” As Zhang Kun spoke, he looked at Li Xu.
Li Xu quickly said, “Yufang’s mother knows her. I don’t think anyone else knows her.”
Zhang Kun nodded, “That should be fine, bringing the child will make people believe me more.”
Otherwise, if a man like him suddenly went to someone else’s house and asked them about Liang Yufang’s character, people would probably be suspicious.
When Ji Zi’ang heard this, he also ran to Zhang Kun’s side and clung to the corner of his shirt, “Uncle Zhang…”
Ever since yesterday, the relationship between Ji Zi’ang and Zhang Kun had become much closer. Therefore, when he spoke to Zhang Kun, Ji Ziang’s tone unconsciously sounded a little spoiled.
“You’re not allowed to go!” Before Ji Zi’ang could say his purpose, Li Yong reached out and grabbed Ji Zi’ang’s collar, pulling him back.
Ji Zi’ang asked pitifully, “Why can Yuanyuan go but I can’t?”
Li Yong sneered, “Yuanyuan isn’t stupid enough to eat several eggplants raw.”
Zhang Kun hesitated for a moment before discussing it with Ji Zi’ang, “I’ll bring you some candy when I come back, be good at home, and don’t run around.”
If he were to go out to play, he would definitely bring Ji Zi’ang along. But now that he was going on a mission, what if something bad happened to Ji Zi’ang?
Initially, he thought that Ji Zi’ang would definitely cause a ruckus, but who would have thought that after hearing Zhang Kun’s words, Ji Zi’ang would obediently nod his head, “I got it, Uncle Zhang. Don’t forget about it when you come back.”
Zhang Kun heaved a sigh of relief and nodded, “I won’t forget about it. When I come back, I’ll buy some delicious candy for you and Zixuan.”
When Zhang Kun spoke, he did not forget to bring along Ji Zixuan, who had always been quiet.
Ji Zixuan was stunned for a moment before the corners of his lips curled up slightly.
Zhang Kun carried Ji Yuanyuan and quickly left the house.
Li Lei had already told him about the road and had even thoughtfully drawn a map of Liang Yufang’s village for him.
Zhang Kun had a rough idea of what was going on. He rode his bicycle and the two of them slowly walked toward Liang Yufang’s house.
There were not many people in the village in the morning. Zhang Kun did not meet anyone along the way.
He had wanted to ask someone first, but now it was all for naught.
Zhang Kun could only bring Ji Yuanyuan to Liang Yufang’s house.
According to the map, Liang Yufang’s house was soon confirmed.
Wooden door, iron hoop, red tile, mud brick adobe…
It was Liang Yufang’s house!
Zhang Kun heaved a sigh of relief. He parked the bicycle and carried Ji Yuanyuan off the bicycle.
Then, he carried Ji Yuanyuan and knocked on the door next to Liang Yufang’s.
After a few knocks, someone came to open the door.
It was a middle-aged woman who looked to be in her fifties. Her eyes were very alert as she sized up Zhang Kun, “You are…”
Zhang Kun handed over a bag of apples that he had brought from home. He smiled and said, “Sister, I want to ask you about something. Is it convenient to go in and talk?”
The woman frowned as she looked at the bag of apples in Zhang Kun’s hand. She hesitated for a few seconds before answering, “Yes, come in!”
If it was a simple man, she would definitely not let him in. However, this man was still holding a child in his arms. He did not look like a bad person.
After entering the house, the woman put the apple on the ground. She did not have any intention of pouring water for Zhang Kun. She asked straightforwardly, “What do you want to ask?”
“It’s like this. My Brother went on a blind date with Liang Yufang from the house next to yours a while ago. The two of them got along well. But I have a colleague who came from here. I heard that Liang Yufang’s reputation doesn’t seem to be very good. I just want to ask, how is this person?” Zhang Kun asked carefully.
After a pause, he quickly said, “Don’t worry, if there’s a problem, I definitely won’t say that it was you who said it. It won’t affect the relationship between your two families.”
Seeing that the woman’s expression was gentle and didn’t look angry, Zhang Kun continued, “It has only been a few days, and my brother has already spent several hundred on her. I am also feeling apprehensive in my heart! If it doesn’t work, let’s just forget about it as soon as possible, don’t you think so?”
As he spoke, he took out ten Yuan from his pocket, “You saw that I came in a hurry and did not bring anything over. This money is not much. Take it and buy something to eat.”
The woman’s originally calm expression immediately lit up when she saw the money in Zhang Kun’s hand.
She reached out and took the money without hesitation.
“Hey, our two families aren’t on good terms, to begin with. It’s fine even if she finds out. What else can she do to me?” The woman curled her lips in disdain.
“Let me tell you. Take advantage of the fact that your brother and Liang Yufang don’t have much of a relationship and didn’t spend too much money, and quickly make your brother break up with her. Otherwise, he’ll end up like that idiot who joined the army. He won’t even know that he’s been a cuckold for three years.”
After the woman finished speaking, Ji Yuanyuan blinked her eyes.
From what this aunt mentioned, Liang Yufang’s idiot who joined the army was undoubtedly her uncle.
“She has a partner?” Zhang Kun was very dramatic. When he heard this sentence, he immediately asked in surprise.
The woman nodded, “That’s right, there’s more than one!”
More than one? When Ji Yuanyuan heard this, she could not help but sigh, “Wow, this is too amazing!”
Zhang Kun covered Ji Yuanyuan’s ears helplessly before continuing, “This is too immoral. She has a partner and even went on a blind date with my younger brother. Does her partner know about this?”
The woman sneered and did not answer the question, “Don’t judge her by her looks. Her methods are amazing! Just based on what I know, there are three of them! Including your younger brother, there are four of them!”
Other than this imaginary younger brother, there were three other people! This Liang Yufang was simply a master of time management!
Ji Yuanyuan sucked in a breath of cold air in her heart!
“What’s up with that soldier you mentioned? How dare she lie to a soldier? She’s too bold!” Zhang Kun quickly changed the topic back to Li Lei.
